Sh. Sushil Singh Charak, State Resource Person, MY Bharat, Jammu & Kashmir, encouraged the students to make the most of platforms such as VBYLD 2027 and use their knowledge, ideas and skills for constructive social participation and community development.

Prof. Dr. Indra Moza, Principal, ASCOMS College of Nursing Education, emphasised the significant role of nursing professionals in realising the vision of Viksit Bharat. She highlighted that nurses, through quality patient care, health education, preventive healthcare, community participation and compassionate service, can contribute substantially towards building a healthier and stronger nation.

During the programme, students who actively participated in the initiative and successfully completed the online quiz were felicitated and appreciated for their enthusiasm and active involvement. Their participation reflected the growing interest of young people in initiatives connected with the vision of Viksit Bharat.

The programme concluded with a call to the students to remain actively engaged in youth empowerment, community development, social responsibility and nation-building initiatives, and to contribute towards fulfilling Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat @2047.

A Profound Loss: JK Monitor Mourns the Passing of Founding Chairman Dr. Priya Ranjan

We at JK Monitor are profoundly saddened by the sudden demise of our Founding Chairman, Dr. Priya Ranjan.IN LOVING MEMORY Dr Priya Ranjan

A brilliant mind who studied at Netarhat Residential School and graduated in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur before earning his PhD from the University of Maryland, Dr. Ranjan chose to return to India and dedicate his life to teaching, research and social good.

His pioneering work in networked systems, AI, robotics and biomedical applications—especially computer-vision tools for early detection of cancer and heart disease—reflected his deep belief that advanced technology must serve humanity.

For more than 15 years at JK Monitor, he remained a loyal friend, mentor and collaborator, marked by rare humility, intellectual integrity and quiet generosity. His passing leaves a void that cannot be filled. Priya, you will be deeply missed. Your life continues to remind us that knowledge finds its highest purpose in the service of others.
